Tasting profile
An elegant blanc de blancs grand cru with fine, persistent bubbles and bright citrus of lemon, lime, and crisp apple lifted by kiwi and a savory mineral edge of chalk, slate, and seaspray. Six years on lees lend creamy, bready, brioche and mushroom depth to a dry, refined mouthfeel that finishes long and refreshing.
Synthesized from 35Vivino reviewers' tasting notes for this bottle.
What reviewers say
“A wonderful boutique champagne with persistent bubblies in fine beads. Intense lemon and lime with toast and brioche in the palate. This is a artisanal champagne well worth chasing down. 95pts”

Summary
Boll & Cie Extra Brut Champagne Grand Cru is a French sparkling wine from Champagne Grand Cru.
Only 35 of its Vivino reviewers rate with enough spread for a personal baseline to be measured, so the calibrated figure rests on a thin sample; a broader pool of 35 reviewers with at least two ratings feeds the raw-average track. 2,765 other sparkling wines from France form the cohort it is ranked inside.
How the score was built
We compare the reviewers of this bottle against every other wine those same people reviewed. Each review is scored relative to the reviewer's own baseline — four stars from someone who hands out fives means something very different from four stars from someone who rarely goes above three. Every reviewer then counts the same, so the result is a calibrated consensus rather than a star average.
- Global percentile
- Where Boll & Cie Extra Brut Champagne Grand Cru lands against every wine we rank.
- In-cohort percentile
- The same comparison narrowed to its cohort — wines of the same type from the same country. A Chilean red is judged against Chilean reds, not against Champagne. Ranked against Sparkling · France (2,766 wines).
- AI-adjusted percentile
- The same reviewer-normalized score, corrected for how much confidence the sample supports: thin samples are pulled toward the corpus average. Each wine keeps the share n / (n + 53) of its measured distance from the average, where n is its calibrated-reviewer count, and the result is ranked on the same scale as the global percentile.53 is the median sample size across everything we rank. Here n is 35.
